National Housing Expert Coming To Chattanooga To Speak On Latest Housing Market Trends

  • Friday, July 29, 2016
Jessica Lautz, a leading expert and national voice on today’s housing landscape, will addresses the latest housing market trends and research at the annual Economic Update Luncheon on Aug. 10, coordinated by the Greater Chattanooga Association of Realtors and the Home Builders Association of Greater Chattanooga.

As the National Association of Realtor’s managing director of Survey Research and Communications, Ms. Lautz keeps a finger on the pulse of the housing market and has been featured in the Bloomberg News, Fortune, Fox Business, New York Times, TIME, U.S.
News and World Report, among others. She conducts annual studies on demographic trends for both Realtors and housing consumers – research that has revealed a consistent finding: the desire to own a home isn’t going anywhere.

“The Economic Update Luncheon offers a unique opportunity for the community to plug directly into the latest news and happenings in the housing market and help maximize their homeownership experiences,” said Nathan Walldorf, GCAR president. “Knowing current trends and where you stand amongst them plays a significant role in making informed decisions about home repairs and remodeling, the pricing and marketing of your home and more.”

Ms. Lautz will be addressing at the Aug. 10 luncheon a number of questions at the forefront of current and prospective homeowners’ minds, such as the value of renovations, the hurdles to homeownership and housing preferences among varying demographics. She will also give insight into the profile of the modern homebuyer and what they are looking for in a home.

This year’s luncheon is open to the public and will be held at The Chattanoogan Hotel from 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. Reservations must be made no later than Friday, Aug. 5. Members of GCAR or HBAGC may purchase tickets for $20, while tickets for non-members will be sold for $25. Interested attendees may register by calling 423-698-8001.
